Chapter 97
Is she the fair little scholar in the mirror?
Zhao Zhizhi couldn't utter a word from his mouth for a long time. He just felt that he was not changing his makeup, but his appearance.

Qing Yan also asked thoughtfully: "Is there anything you want to improve, Miss Zhao?"

Zhao Zhizhi came to his senses and shook his head, "I can't even recognize myself anymore, so there's no need to improve."

"I'll just tie up the girl's hair again." Qing Yan took out the ribbon from her waist, pushed Zhao Zhizhi's hair back and tied it into a ball.

"The girl's hair is really nice." Qing Yan looked at Zhao Zhizhi's black and smooth hair and couldn't help but admire it.

Zhao Zhizhi pursed her lips and smiled softly. In fact, she felt it was very magical.

She is obviously just an ordinary farmer's daughter, but after losing weight, she looks like a lady in the family. Both appearance and temperament are completely different from those of Zhao's father and brother.

"Okay, girl, the young master is still waiting for us outside. Let's set off quickly."

After Zhao Zhizhi went out, Wei Shao was still carrying his back. When he heard the sound, he turned around, with a hint of unknown color flashing in his eyes.

Zhao Zhizhi felt inexplicably shy for some reason. Her earlobes were so red that she didn't even dare to look up at him.

It wasn't until a pair of shoes came into view that she subconsciously raised her head, but her face was pinched by calloused hands.

Immediately afterwards, she felt something cold inserted into her bun.

Wei Shao let go of his hand, took half a step back, and looked at the jade hairpin in her bun. Although he said nothing, satisfaction was visible in his eyes.

Qing Yan took back a set of blue robes from the carriage waiting outside and respectfully presented them to Wei Shao.

"Put on your clothes." Wei Shao handed the clothes to Zhao Zhizhi.

At this time, Zhao Zhizhi completely changed from a beautiful girl to a delicate and noble young man.

Zhao Zhizhi got on the carriage, Qing Yan drove the car, and Wei Shao rode the horse. It was getting late, so they rushed to the county seat as quickly as possible.

When they reached the fork in the road, Wei Shao left through another road.

Zhao Zhizhi opened the curtain and took a look, curiously smelling: "Qingyan, where has your young master gone?"

While driving the car, Qing Yan turned around and said, "Don't worry, girl, the young master will come back, and he will protect you in secret."

Zhao Zhizhi didn't ask any more questions, put down the curtain and began to close his eyes and fall asleep.

Although I don’t know what will happen next, it is definitely right to adjust my mentality first.

She started walking at noon, and Zhao Zhizhi also slept all the way. When she woke up, her stomach made a protest sound.

Zhao Zhizhi pursed his lips, feeling a little resentful toward Wei Shao.

It's no time now, let alone prepare some pastries in the car. You can't go hungry and help him with errands.

At this time, Zhao Zhizhi heard the sounds outside the car suddenly become lively, mixed with various styles of hawking.

"We sell steamed buns, freshly baked steamed buns, delicious steamed buns."

"Candied haws, sour and sweet candied haws."

"Poria Cake, our Poria Cake is sold cheaply. Don't miss it if you pass by."

……

Just listening to it and not even smelling it made Zhao Zhizhi salivate.

She tried to shout: "Qingyan?"

After waiting for a while, no one responded.

Zhao Zhizhi wanted to move to the entrance of the carriage and call someone, but as soon as she moved, her legs became so numb that she couldn't help but sit back.I actually got cramps.

Afraid of missing out on these meals, Zhao Zhizhi gritted his teeth, took out a silver needle from his waist, and pricked several acupuncture points that dredged blood vessels.

After the sore and numb feeling subsided, Zhao Zhizhi hurriedly climbed to the door of the car and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Qingyan, are you there?"

Qing Yan groaned, causing the carriage to stop, and then turned around and asked Zhao Zhizhi, "Girl, what's the matter?"

Although Zhao Zhizhi was a little embarrassed, he couldn't bear the torture of hunger. "Qingyan, could you please go to the street and buy me some food? Just buy whatever you want. I'm a little hungry."

Qing Yan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and hurriedly apologized to her: "It's my fault, girl. I'll buy it right away. You wait in the car for a while."

Before Zhao Zhizhi had time to respond, there was no movement outside the car.

Zhao Zhizhi could only wait anxiously in the car, his stomach making an urging sound all the time.

Not long after, Qing Yan came back, holding three or four kinds of food in her hands, stuffing Zhao Zhizhi's arms full.

Zhao Zhizhi looked at her dumbfounded, "Why did you buy so much? How much money did you spend?"

Qing Yan explained: "Don't worry, girl. Although food is expensive now, the situation in the county is relatively better. You can tell from the voice of this street vendor that they haven't gone hungry yet, so they didn't spend much money."

Zhao Zhizhi rolled his eyes and secretly cursed in his heart, "She can go to the market after completing the task. There is also money reserved in the space. If the food is really not expensive, she can buy some back and make copies."

Now that there are still hungry villagers in the village, Zhao Zhizhi can't help but sigh.

The geographical difference is so obvious.

Although there is not yet a shortage of food in the county, every household is already living on the surplus food.

The reason why these vendors still come out to sell things may be because they have other ways.

Zhao Zhizhi planned to ask around again when he came back for shopping.

When she was almost done eating, the carriage stopped.

She opened the curtain, and Qingyan whispered in her ear: "Girl, don't say anything for a while."

Zhao Zhizhi nodded and covered his mouth to express that he would never make a sound.

Qing Yan waited for her to get off the car, then walked behind her and said, "Girl, I'm sorry."

Before Zhao Zhizhi understood what she meant by this, he saw Qing Yan put his hand on her shoulder and pushed her forward.

It feels like being a prisoner.

Qing Yan took her directly to the brothel's madam. Zhao Zhizhi looked confused, but Qing Yan bargained with the old madam very skillfully.

Soon, Zhao Zhizhi was "sold" at the right price.

But Zhao Zhizhi was not "for sale", but was temporarily held in a brothel as a part-time worker. When she made enough money, she could redeem herself.

Zhao Zhizhi immediately understood what they meant, that is to say, after it was over, Qingyan could return the money and she would be free again.

Qing Yan got the money and left. The madam looked around Zhao Zhizhi again and again, and shook his head with some pity, "You can be a young man with your handsome appearance, but it's a pity that your boss is so soft-hearted. I also want you to redeem yourself in the future."

"But, Mom, I am not an unreasonable person. Hey, by the way, what is your name?" The madam narrowed her eyes and smiled maliciously.

Zhao Zhizhi followed Wei Shao's instructions, pretending to be well-behaved and said, "Mom, just call me Ah Cai."

Seeing that he was so understanding, the old bustard's smile widened a lot, "Okay, Ah Cai, mom wants to ask you, would you like to earn more money?"
